Finding Joy Beyond the Finish Line | Venice Beach News
Description
When Aisha McAdams, a former elite runner turned photographer, embeds herself with the world’s toughest ultra-marathoners, she doesn’t just capture their grit—she rekindles her own love for the sport. Following athletes like Jim Walmsley and Eszter Csillag through punishing 100-mile races, “Learning to Fly” reveals the raw emotion, fierce competition, and unexpected joy that define endurance running. As McAdams reconnects with her past self, the film becomes a powerful meditation on courage, community, and finding fulfillment on your own terms—not for glory, but for joy.
